From the announcement on Brian Harry's blog:

Almost 11 years after we created CodePlex, it’s time to say goodbye.  We launched CodePlex in 2006 because we, like others in the industry, saw a need for a great place to share software.  Over the years, we’ve seen a lot of amazing options come and go but at this point, GitHub is the de facto place for open source sharing and most open source projects have migrated there.

 

The creation of new projects on CodePlex has been disabled and the site will be made read only in October with the final shut down occurring in December.
